Netanyahu Orders Israel Army To Prepare For Possible Military Strike Against Iran In 2014

Back in 2013 it was Syria where the world was gearing for imminent military action after a relentless series of false flag provocations by the United States (intent on securing a Qatar gas pipeline to Europe) which in the last minute was deftly diffused by Vladimir Putin. In 2014, it was the Ukraine's turn, and after a prolonged campaign orchestrated by Victoria Nuland and the US State Department (again) which succeeded in the now traditional violent coup (see Egypt and Libya), once again saw Putin victorious, after yesterday's annexation of the all important Crimean peninsula, achieved without the firing of one shot. So now that Putin has succeeded in trouncing the US twice in a row, it is time to poke some old, well-known geopolitical wounds, such as Iran. And who better to do it than Israel, where as Haaretz reports, "Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon have ordered the army to continue preparing for a possible military strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities at a cost of at least 10 billion shekels ($2.89 billion) this year, despite the talks between Iran and the West, according to recent statements by senior military officers."

To be sure there is a tangible benefit for all those involved: moar war means more military spending means more "broken windows" means more "GDP."

Three Knesset members who were present at Knesset joint committee hearings on Israel Defense Forces plans that were held in January and February say they learned during the hearings that 10 billion shekels to 12 billion shekels of the defense budget would be allocated this year for preparations for a strike on Iran, approximately the same amount that was allocated in 2013.

Yet unlike the US where warmongering has become an art, if not a science, in Israel these things are taken far more seriously:

The IDF representatives said the army had received a clear directive from government officials from the political echelon – meaning Netanyahu and Ya’alon – to continue readying for a possible independent strike by Israel on the Iranian nuclear sites, regardless of the talks now happening between Iran and the West, the three MKs said.

As for the diplomatic cover for a potential attack, it is well-known, and the same one used for the past 3 years - attack Iran before it can nuke Israel and obliterate it from the face of the earth.

Ever since the interim accord between Iran and the six powers was reached, Netanyahu has stressed that Israel will not consider itself bound by it. In the last few weeks, as talks on a permanent accord have resumed, Netanyahu has upped his rhetoric on the Iranian issue, and is again making implied threats about a possible unilateral Israeli strike on the Iranian nuclear sites.

“My friends, I believe that letting Iran enrich uranium would open up the floodgates,” Netanyahu said at the AIPAC conference earlier this month. “That must not happen. And we will make sure it does not happen.”

Ironically, this time Israel may see pushback from none other than the US itself, which mysteriously over the past 6 months has transformed itself from Iran's most hated enemy to a willing partner who sees Iran as nothing short of a frontier market (not to mention source of natural resources).

However, the US too realizes that it needs "military outs" with Ukraine seemingly diffused for the time being. Which is why yesterday, a few hours after Russia peacefully annexed Crimea, the US made its feeble response known, when it suspended operations of the Syrian Embassy in Washington and its consulates and told diplomats and staff who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents to leave the country. The justification of this oddly timed move came from the U.S. special envoy for Syria Daniel Rubinstein who said that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had refused to step down and was responsible for atrocities against Syrians.

"We have determined it is unacceptable for individuals appointed by that regime to conduct diplomatic or consular operations in the United States," said Rubinstein, whose appointment was announced by the State Department on Monday.

"Consequently, the United States notified the Syrian government today that it must immediately suspend operations of its embassy in Washington, D.C., and its honorary consulates in Troy, Michigan, and Houston, Texas," he said in a statement.

In other words, the US tried to impose its "moral superiority" codex on yet another country, which for all intents and purposes was a proxy of Russian strength in the middle east, i.e., punish the Kremlin by kicking out Syria. Surely Putin was in tears.

The only problem is that it is now beyond obvious to virtually everyone in the world that the framework of Pax Americana is only applicable to the increasingly self-deluded United States, and of course the Group of 7 most insolvent nations, whose debt ponzi schemes are ever more reliant on a centrally planned regime of low interest rates and free money. For everyone else it is now just as obvious that when provoked, the best the US can do is simply impose some sanctions, and shut down embassies... while it prints trillions of dollars in "paper wealth" each year of course.

It would be nice if Putin would shut this muthafucka up for good. Netanyahu is the true murderer of the world, indirectly sending American soldiers to their deaths into foreign lands to kill Israel's mortal enemies.

His first act was to suspend diplomatic relations. As I said yesterday, it was to be expected. The SAA is all but routing the terrorists backed byt he west, israel and the gulf. Israel bombed syria yesterday as well, in retribution for a roadside bomb planted by the same al quaeda they support. Figure that one out.

First let me say I am no huge fan of the Zionist agenda, and believe the one thing BHO, the Dems and Carter got right was to not allow the State of Israel to dominate our foreign policy. (Our money, banks and financial system - yes, but foreign policy no.)

However, consider a World without Israel sitting in the ME. Muzzies would dominate that crucial energy rich area and form a 2nd Caliphate, which would put global dominance on their agenda.

It is definately the lesser of two evils, but I chose Israel over the alternative... at least for now.

Somehow I feel like there is so much stress in the system that something has to blow, or that someone will lose it and start WWIII.

Egypt in its present form doesn't want a caliphate. Syria in it's form doesn't want a caliphate. Muammar Gaddafi's libya didn't want a caliphate. the WEST are the ones who typically install governments who want caliphates.

The model for a largely Islamic country IS Syria. Strong national identity, cultural and religious mosaic. The WEST props up the bad ones, and tries hell or high water to install them. IT is the west ( and even Israel in the case of Syria ) who fund and support radical islam who shuns national identity for a singuar horde.

Exactly. And I think the reason is simple : Israel needs such regimes to justify its expansion and what it does to Palestinians. Israel will get broad support only if their neighbours are as bad, or worse than them. "We will save you from the terrorists".

I'm hardly a shut in, but the majesty of places like Banff and Wateron exist in the summer and winter equally - but feel free to retain any fallacies which make you feel better about yourself. Save your guilt whispering for someone with an IQ below room temperature or who is still operating under the mirage that is the mainstream geo political lie. Go scream Never Again in an echo chamber.

I hope you at least read Al Jazeerah in Arabic. That would be halfway impressive.

Banff and Waterton are lovely but there is a world beyond those mountains and forests where all the events you so knowledgably comment on occur. Familiar with it? Or am I holding on to my fallacies? : )

Yeh yeh yeh...but have you ever been to IL or to any Arab country I wonder?

It's nice that you're VP of a flatulence company but reading comprehesion doesn't seem to have been a requirement for the position apparently. That was explicitly an exceptional case and was perpetrated upon Israeli citizens themselves for the most part:

The Channel 2 report said that in the 1990s, forensic specialists at Abu Kabir harvested skin, corneas, heart valves and bones from the bodies of Israeli soldiers, Israeli citizens, Palestinians and foreign workers, often without permission from relatives.

it did say palestinians and foreign workers. perhaps they couldn't take the time in lebanon to get some kidneys from those they killed the last time they were there. apparently hezbollah kept them on the move then.

"It seems Obama's weakness wasn't just noticed by our enemies. If Netanyahu moves, what is crybaby Obama gonna do about it?"

Like a bowel movement you mean? Better question is what is nuttinyappy going to do? His order of battle and geographical proximity to Iran is a joke.

What's he going to go, gesticulate towards the east and make funny-faces and jump up and down and run in circles for a bit? Draw fangs on the picture of a Ayatollah Khomeini and throw darts at it for a bit?

Israel has got nothing that can make a military difference without geting Israel nuked.

So you're happy to ride-out a massive sustained chem and bio attack response? You are happy to see the Saudi oil fields and infrastructure in flames huh? Straits closed full of thousands of mines. Think there will be no blowback from a little nettyahoo bowel movement do you?

Seems just a touch short-sighted and cavalier.

You start flinging nukes fool and the whole bucket of poop hits the fan.

And yes, I'm clearly a whole lot better at this than you noob.

When China and India can't get their oil, Israel is gone in a blinding flash.

I said:

"Israel has got nothing that can make a military difference without getting Israel nuked."

So on the one hand, "When China and India can't get their oil, Israel is gone in a blinding flash." (You still don't mention who is going to do this, but from the statement it is implied China and India?)

And on the other hand, "...the Saudi oil fields and infrastructure [will be] in flames..."

So countries angry about having their oil cut off will attack Saudi oil fields, or allow them to be attacked, further reducing world oil supplies? Also, "...a massive sustained chem and bio attack response..." From who?

"Straits closed full of thousands of mines." So in response to an Israeli attack, Iran shuts off its main export? Yeah, that'll show them!

Yes, you're clearly a whole lot better at this than me. Lay off the crack pipe.

You're new here, and obviously deeply ignorant about the options (which have been discussed here at length), conventional, biological and chemical, plus the scale of Iran's ballistic missile forces, and cruise missile forces, plus ASW weapons, and ballistic anti-ship missiles, all currently available to Iran, in very large numbers (and also in Syria as well btw).

If some brainless utter fucking idiot, in Israel, actually did attack Iran with a nuke, Iran's forces will immediately execute plans for that eventuality, that have been developed since 1979 (35 years of developing this capability), to totally demolish the Saudi oil field infrastructures, demolish the loading terminals, use chemical and biological agents against the Saudi targets, and most certainly against Israel in very heavy sustained attacks from multiple directions. And Irans dispersed forces will seed the waters with thousands to tens of thousands of sea mines. Preventing all oil shipment from the gulf region for many months - minimum.

And all the scores of countries that currently rely on oil shipments from the Persian Gulf, representing several billion people, and at least 5 nuclear powers, will take a rather dim view of Israel at that point. And I assure you, FOOL, no one is going to be too forgiving or understanding about this, Israel will be seen as a rogue mass-murder state and a danger to the whole world, and its actions will be viewed as a strategic attack on the whole world, and at least two maybe three nuclear powers are going to eliminate it, as an absolute necessity, of removing an intolerable danger to humanity.

And netanyahoo, if he survives that long, will end up dangling on the end of a rope.

"Israel; tactical nuke on Natanz; no mushroom cloud, no loss of civilian life."

After GWv1.0 the US attempted to develop an air-dropped rocket-assisted mini nuke penetrator that could go deep enough to prevent a fireball and mushroom cloud. They cancelled it because the penetration in tests could never project deeply enough into even soil, to prevent a fireball erupting, and it was calculated that a mushroom cloud would always erupt, that was little different from a surface burst, with only minor sub surface energy coupling. And on a rock surface it was almost entirely useless. Indeed its depth performance was calculated to be almost exactly the same as a surface burst in effective outcome. Thus the whole concept of a nuclear bunker-buster, with no surface eruption, was abandoned as totally unworkable.

Natanz is situated DEEP under a solid-rock mountain (have a look on google Earth) and there is a town nearby, and get this, its called Netanz! Isn't that amazing! So you have no clue what you are talking about and are laboring under the usual Israeli propaganda delusions.

The Saudis are furious at Obama simply because they are scared, they know they are toast if it comes to war with Iran. They know they can't stop the attacks and crippling damage that would come in such a battle. The US walked away, because the US does not want that battle and its World War III implications.

And yes, being bad for business is exactly the point. i.e.

Nuking Iran = Iran destroys the oil flow from the region and closes the Gulf indefinitely.

That sort of thing is called a STRATEGIC DETERRENT.

It also gets Israel nuked if Israel ever tries to attack Iran with nukes.

That's how its done fella.

Thus Iran does not need the nukes it just needs its current conventional and chem-bio capabilities, and Israel can talk shit all it wants, as it makes no difference.

"Who's going to nuke them, the Russians? The Pakistanis? The Indians?"

If the rothschilde puppet nation isreal continues with the long laid plans to be the match that starts the next world war wildfire, then the answer to your question is who won't be at war with the apartheid nation for this callus blatant and reprehensible flagrant violation of International Law by attacking innocent Iran?

Everybody knows the simple truth about how that nation was created, and why. It has been repeated and proven over and over again. The biggest reason for the protection of isreal is so they can continue making arms and warmonger tools, while sucking all the American tax payers money for their warmonger profiting industries.

How about if America brings all her troops home and then stops sending any monies for any reasons to isreall? How about we spend all those billions of dollars in the USA instead of in the apartheid nation? Spend America's tax dollars in America, not isreal. Invest in America, not isreal.

If you love America, if you value life more than money, if you want to help peacefully make a difference, then boycott isreal and demand we BRING ALL OF OUR TROOPS HOME NOW! It would be nice if we could all get along and just be nice to each other.

What happened to the assassination market, paid out in bitcoin?Fonestar would have made a few friends around here touting one truly valuable use for BTCI can think of at least 2 Bens we could do without

Warmongering fuck nutty yahoo probably been getting a little whisper in the ear rregarding military tactics from the other slaughterer Sharon. Maybe on his stupid graphic above instead of "final stage" he should have chosen final solution, that would have really given Congress a tingle down their collective legs!

See, you tell Benny, sit the fuck down, and wait. It is not your turn. Or, all of a sudden, the 2.5B of US money, will cease to flow. Would 2.5B be enough to fix the fucking abortion known as Obamacare???????

In the 1967 war, the Russians were gearing up for bombing runs within Israel and a naval landing in Haifa. Israel would have been toast if the US hadn't warned the Russians off and sent a naval task force to Israel.

Distraction time is nearing a close and the dress rehearsals are almost over. The real issue at hand IS AT HOME HERE. The purposely crashed dollar to subjugate America with the new hitlarian martial law is the end game. The only problem is, the babylonian govt is not keeping up to expectations like hitler did in conquering the European nations. They are being defeated at every turn by truth.

The new zio-hitler regime that IS NOT AMERICAN AT ALL, is way behind on the list of countries to plunder and conquer for bankster power and control of the resources. They are behind in the population elimination agenda also. Isreal is chopping at the bit to do their masters(Roth$childes) bidding by bombing Iran. They only do battle for the satanic CFR and oil corporations. It is for no other purpose. Who profits in wars that are cover-ups for their blatant criminality and corruption?

Some day soon, the people are just going to say no more and that day is fast coming. The babylonians are up to no good as usual and a false flag event blaming innocent Iran has been long foretold about many, many times. Everybody knows how the deceivers operate. Will the next world tragedy be some sort of false flag involving the missing jet?

Beyond sabre rattling, I've often mused that crippling Iran will be the ultimate ace in the hole to take production off the market. I myself would love a Russian strike on Saudi Arabia - being that it is much more just.

You know it's embarrassing, years ago ( a decade and more ) I recall that I used to think folks like Bibi, McCain et al were somewhere between principled stand up guys and borderline badasses.

Now that the scales have falles from my eyes, it's clear they are evil incarnate, psychopathic, frothing at the mouth satanists hell bent on literally destroying the world if absolutely everyone does not bow to them.

they like gimmiks like a "red line" because they can use it start a bloody war, which all they really want anyway... "see now, they crossed the red line... we have to attack now, the red line got crossed.... if we don't no one will take our country seriously.... see"....

And notice that the fuze is already lit. And when it burns down to this little red line I'm drawing, representing the powder, the bomb will go boom. So you better not fuck with us 'cause we got plenty of these suckers, and we have plenty of Bics too.

I'm always telling people "Back when I was a kid, I can remember how there were actually mature adults. Now, all I see are children of all ages." (with my life-long voter in-laws leading the derp brigade (they own all of the correct books too))

The only place I ever find anyone with a clue is in my local coin shop. I gotta start going there more often.

Today I was talking with the Bulgarian cleaning lady, who cleans our offices, about the 'mess' in the Ukraine and she says (in a very thick Slavic accent) " I don't know why America has to get involved. Maybe they need another war to keep economy going. Sorry I have to tell you that, but thats how your Country is". I told she was right.

I was shocked to hear this from someone in my personal life (you guys say it all the time). The cleaning lady, of all people, gets it. Highlight of my week.

Israel is a goddamned warmongering state. Always was and always will be. World subjugation is their only real goal. It's part of their "religion". They have always used their bought proxies to do their fighting, but that well of blood is running thin these days. It's perfectly fine for them to have as many illicit nukes in their arsenal, but woe be upon any bordering gentile nation to balance the scales. Utter hypocrisy that the world is slowly waking up to.

As the only democracy in the Middle East, the US needs Israel as much as Israel needs the US. It is a symbioatic relationship. Israel has a right to defend itself as a nation. That's is all is it attempting to do here.

I do not have anything against jewish folks but you obviously have no idea how much disgust you provoke. Believe me, most people would prefer to live without ever being exposed to the utter evils of the zionists in Israel and elsewhere. Most would rather not think ill of jewish folks, but for the antics of the zionists in their ranks.

Get it in to your warped, thick skull that you are defending the indefensible acts of psychopaths and promoting criminals who steal, lie and murder as a part of their national policy. If you are jewish then wake up and join the ranks of decent jewish folks against zionism.

+1000. It really is time for the good Jews, and there are plenty, to get on the case of these psychopaths. Unfortunately I see little or no evidence of this happening. Instead it's the knee-jerk response of 'racist' and 'anti-semite'.........which is all getting so very tiring.

What IL gets is military aid which anyone in the know can tell you isn't necessary (some might even say it harms IL or any other competitor with the US defense industry), and which is in essence a .gov subsidy of the US defense industry. US manufacturers produce ridculous amounts of materiel knowing that they can unload surpluses to US allies at .gov's expense. That's why IL scratched the Lavi fighter jet program. McDonnell Douglas would've been hit hard if that project were allowed to succeed.

Never mind that US defense contractors get IL tech for free under this arrangement. We're talking pedestrian things like laser and cellular technology. Research the topic bitchez.

CD, word for word the story of my own awakening. What I can't understand is how the fuck I was so blind for so long. It's not as if I were cocooned on some remote island. I've travelled the world, read avidly and widely........

(And yes, having worked in Saudi I echo your satisfaction in seeing the cruel, lazy useless hypoctites turned to glass.)

From my understanding, Turkey, Libya, South Sudan align themselves with Russia and Iran against Israel.

.

'The 3 Lions' (UK, Canada, USA) participation will be limited, with the USA in particular being a non-factor.

It appears as though something happens to the USA to be unable to come to Israels aid? ('Lights go out,' man-made natural disaster, we get attacked, POTUS/high ranking officials get snuffed out, etc...)

I actually thought you were joking, but you're not. Well, OK, given that the only strategic danger of WWIII in the world is in Israel, barry should cancel the pivot to Asia, and just pivot to Israel. Strategy is so much simplified! Thanks blotto! :D

It would be ironic indeed that WWIII was triggered not by "Gog and Magog" invading Israel, the meme used by the Zionists to get formulaic Christian fundamentalists to support the NWO Zionist aims with zombie-like fervor, but rather Soros and neo-con NWO/Zionist funded Mossad snipers killing both sides in Kiev to light the match...

That is why the conservative christians want them there in the first place, only with the Jews there can we have armageddon. With no Jews in the Middle East we can't have the end of the world and that would be a bummer, we would be stuck in perpetual peace.

The only thing I can't decide is whether or not Bibi has been let in on the secret that the State of Israel is being set-up to be destroyed (a.k.a. "internationalized"), or if he's just a really, really good self-propelled tool?

I wish their Prophecies get fullfiled sooner rather than later, sure we will be Caveman again but at least we will gotten rid of the Fundamentalist Christians and Zionist SCUM, and I would take that bargain.

I think you got it wrong. If things go down in the logic of this comment sub-thread the living will not be in caves but something more lofty. But if you prefer caves nobody is going to force you to relocate.

Yes, and it isn't just the ethno-mafia's "elite" or "leaders" pulling strings behind the curtain, the "tribe" at large virtually all support hate groups like AIPAC, ADL, SPLC, IASPS, JINSA, JDL, NUIS, Defense Policy Board, and dozens of others, through constant long-term activsm, generous broad based finanacial support, and selective ethnocentrism and nepotism, and support for radical political and social groups.

Here is a clue to why this behavior perpetually manifests, historically, and in contemporary times.

Scientists discover gene that predisposes Ashkenazi Jews to schizophrenia:Variations of the DNST3 gene make Ashkenazi Jews 40 percent more likely to develop schizophrenia and similar diseases.

It must be so difficult for you to carry all that hatred and ignorance around with you every day. Sometimes you probably feel like no one cares about you and you don't matter to this world. Maybe you should end it all now to stop the pain. The world would be a better place.

Would it not be more helpful all round were you to try and refute what he says with FACTS, you know, these pesky things that can sometimes get in the way? You've used up 'hate'. Now what about 'racist' and 'anti-semite'?

Makes one wonder as to why these people can continue to be so fucking stupid to keep using that ole worn out wash rag over and over and over again. Everybody knows what the apartheid warmongering boycotted nation is all about, who they really are, and what they actually do. Actions have always spoken louder than flamboyant preposterous paper-tiger words.

No isreal, we do not hate you. We are just not pleased with your puppet actions and horrid works for your satanic money-masters, the rothschildes. It is only as simple as that. Stop being the flunky warmongers for bankster profits, and we will all love you again. Until you do that, we will just turn our backs on you and boycott everything isreal. Easy peazy!

For all his loud mouth and expansionist dreams, Netanyahu attacks nothing that isn’t helpless unless he can cower behind the skirts and warmongering machinery of a US superpower to back his dirty work. Coward!

Cowards are dangerous, driven by fear and greed to kill quickly and start wars where brave men would not tread unless seriously provoked. “To be reckless is not to be brave; it is only to be a fool.”

Nobody supports Iran. As long as they pay their bills, the Russians, Chinese, French and Germans will sell them stuff. It's a pay-as-you-go world for Iran. Their best and brightest are leaving Iran to find their fortune in the West.
